Each night the presence of the Holy Spirit became more powerful, and many people confessed Jesus Christ as their Savior. On a Sunday night, November 6, during a prayer meeting, Mr. Night after night, Moriah was crowded to capacity, and the services continued until and in the morning. The Revival spread like wildfire from place to place all over the nation of Wales.
The presence of the Holy Spirit in a meeting did not depend upon Evan Roberts being there. The Holy Spirit descended even on places where Evan did not visit. Society was changed, as Wales became a God-fearing nation. Although it was a little known country when the Revival began, within a short time people were flocking to see and hear for themselves what God was doing and to share in the blessing.
Newspaper reports of the Revival spread the news of the awakening, and visitors touched by the Spirit of God took the flame to their home countries. The Revival spread to Europe first, then America, and eventually to all five continents. Now history records this as possibly one of the greatest revivals of all time, as no revival has changed a whole nation in such a short period of time and then gone on to impact the rest of the world.

Nice to hear about and see the place where the Welsh revival happened! A treasure of the Lord looked after by faithful people lest we forget what men of God that have gone before us have reaped for the Kingdom of God. Had a lovely sing song on a wet Sunday morning. The 6 of October of , on the centenary of colonization, the chapel and the cemetery were declared Provincial Historical Monument by Law No. The marble monolith in front of him, which was made by public collection, was erected in memory of Reverend Abraham Matthews.
Intended to be placed in the Plaza Independencia in the center of Trelew, the current location was chosen at the express request of his wife. In the early years it functioned as a primary school, a hall for cultural, social and economic activities. It has a main door with nine windows, having attached an auxiliary body of 8 by 6 meters, with an entrance door and four windows.
On the occasion of the first centenary of the Welsh Colonization , it was provided with electricity, and the masonry fence with bars was built, by the San David Association. This article brought about an invitation from a chapel in Aberdare for Roberts to preach on the Sunday; an invitation he accepted. By now prayer meetings were being held in some houses in Loughor all day long.
Two girls went to hold open air meetings near some public houses in Gorseinon and some young people went to evangelise some gypsies who had encamped near Loughor. In both places there were salvations. That night the new chapel was filled long before the time to begin the service, so Roberts asked his friend Sydney Evans, who had just returned from Newcastle Emlyn, to take the overflow into the old chapel.
However, in minutes that was full as well. Several of the people there that night had come to scoff, but ended up giving their lives to Christ. It was past 5.
